Patek Philippe 3796J Calatrava 18K Yellow Gold Silver Dial

The Patek Philippe 3796J Calatrava in 18K yellow gold, debuting circa 1985, exemplifies the enduring elegance of the Calatrava line. Drawing direct inspiration from the iconic Reference 96, the 3796J revives the Bauhaus philosophy of form following function, presenting a minimalist yet supremely refined aesthetic. Its understated 31mm case, crafted by Atelier Reunis, houses the distinguished manual-wind Caliber 215—a slim movement lauded for both its precision and the prestigious Geneva Seal mark. The pristine silvered dial, accented by applied indexes and a sub-seconds display, emphasizes clarity and timelessness. The 3796J’s restrained proportions and precious case material make it a coveted choice for collectors seeking classic authenticity and lineage. The black alligator strap underscores the watch’s sophisticated restraint, suitable for connoisseurs with an appreciation for subtle, historically anchored design. As a continuation of the legendary Calatrava concept, this reference delivers horological purity in its most quintessential form, celebrated for both its rarity and its direct link to the foundational codes of Patek Philippe dress watch design.
